As digital movie-making, like live sports, can now be performed by one director—or by a collaborative team online— it is only a matter of time before cinema auteurs will create “live” movies to be broadcast instantly in faraway theaters. “Peppered with brilliant personal observations” (Wendy Doniger), \u003cem\u003eLive Cinema and Its Techniques\u003c\/em\u003e offers a behind-the-scenes look at a consummate career: from Coppola’s formative boyhood obsession with live 1950s television shows and later attempts to imitate the spontaneity of live performance on set, the book usefully includes a guide to presenting state-of-the-art techniques on everything from rehearsals to equipment. A testament to Coppola’s prodigious enthusiasm for reinvigorating the form, Live Cinema is an indispensable guide that “reenergizes . . . the search for a new way of storytelling” (William Friedkin).","brand":"Liveright Publishing Corporation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47042466808048,"sku":"9781631494543","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781631494543_p0.jpg?v=1763672227","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781631494543","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
